Odysseus Heroic Qualities

Odysseus is a role model trying to save his men during his long, and eventful journey. Superheroes I see today are also role models, always saving the day and fighting bad guys. They are both quick thinkers like when Odysseus had to come up with a plan to trick the cyclopes, or an example of a superhero is Spider-Man where he saves the civilians and Marry Jane at the same time. Being hero isn't all that fun, a hero must be responsible and have the sense of justice to make the right choice. The most important quality for Odysseus is probably being brave and stand up to anything that comes into his way, which this quality makes an idea of my own hero. I think most heroes should be kind, and Odysseus needs to be kind.
